"Tharg's allowed me to show you a panel from my upcoming Dredd strip... doesn't give anything away, but enjoy anyway," said the illustrator, offering a preview of his artwork on the social networking site.

Weston first worked on Judge Dredd in 1984, teaming up with John Wagner on the 'Night at the Circus' story. He completed artwork for Marvel Comics' The Twelve in October last year.

Judge Dredd was created by Wagner and artist Carlos Ezquerra in 1977. As well as becoming a British comics icon, the character has since appeared in a Hollywood film and various other media. A movie reboot is currently in the works starring Karl Urban.
